How many walked away in John 6:66 when the teaching got too hard? How many catholics walk away today on teachings like contraception, for example? This is what Sean means by being on “the wrong side”… Truth separates and divides.

ChrisWed, 19 Jun 2013 15:53:42 +0000http://www.catholicvote.org/?p=51356#comment-190258Bob Sanders, that is a load of rubbish.

If you read the report, you will see CatholicVote has correctly commented on it.

Read the report on the link above, don’t listen to Bob’s advice to ignore it.

SeanWed, 19 Jun 2013 15:48:52 +0000http://www.catholicvote.org/?p=51356#comment-190252Jesus Christ was also on the “wrong side” of history. Seems like good company to be in.

PaulWed, 19 Jun 2013 14:54:45 +0000http://www.catholicvote.org/?p=51356#comment-190191“The study clearly shows that the major cable outlets gave more air time to supporters of the legalization of same sex marriage than to opponents. This does not mean the stories supported gay marriage…”

Aaaaand…assuming your interpretation of the information is accurate…that’s not bias?

Certainly, the number of people quoted is not indicative of the split on the issue. Not even close. Entire states are still shooting down new definitions of marriage. This is not a “done deal,” especially in the minds of those who continue to think *for* themselves and not *of* themselves.

Also, the “wrong side of history” tend to be the side populated by people who couldn’t be bothered to speak out against something wrong.

WillWed, 19 Jun 2013 14:46:08 +0000http://www.catholicvote.org/?p=51356#comment-190183Ok, accepting that conclusion that you gave of these outlets providing more airtime for “voices” supporting same-sex marriage does say something about the agenda, specifically since left leaning MSNBC shows more voices promoting it than Fox News or CNN. Liberal bias in the media on social issues isn’t just a blame thing and there is evidence. Don’t be so obtuse as to think that more airtime for certain quotes is completely unrelated to their own agenda.

SLCMLCWed, 19 Jun 2013 14:39:58 +0000http://www.catholicvote.org/?p=51356#comment-190180Left unsaid is if you’re using Fox News to prove a liberal bias in the media you may be on the wrong track. Might be time to just realize that you’re on the wrong side of history here.

On the plus side, loved the Seinfeld references. Great episode.

ColinWed, 19 Jun 2013 14:38:47 +0000http://www.catholicvote.org/?p=51356#comment-190178One thing the media reported the other day was how many people (regardless of their opinion on gay marriage itself) believe it will be inevitable.

Erick CTue, 18 Jun 2013 21:46:45 +0000http://www.catholicvote.org/?p=51356#comment-188721I am not surprised by this report, the liberal media Always had an agenda, there is NO such thing as being “unbiased” for the media favors certain stories over others, and quotes certain people over other people. Notice how these secular media outlets cover the gay pride march but ignore the defending marriage marches, it doesn’t take a study to figure this out.
